Now using drag and drop - grab a project in your file explorer (e.g. TI_TM4C1294XL.tar.gz) and drop it onto the top most symbol in under
WORKSPACE FILES- in this way the compressed archive is added to your workspace. Next, right click the compressed archive and selectExtract. Then expand the foldersrcand click onmain.cto open up the top-level source file.Both indicators in the top right corner of the cloud IDE should turn green.

Open another tab in the browser and navigate to
cloud-emb.technikum-wien.at:5000to view your development board.
Flashing
When flashing a program onto the development platform open up the main "C" file
of the project you wish to flash and select Flash from the Embedded
Developer menu.
This invokes the build process and flashes the resulting image onto the target platform. The results of the flash procedure are shown in the console tab of the IDE.
If the results show Flashing succeeded the flash process was successful.

Debugging
For Debugging a program open up the main "C" file of the project you wish to
debug and select Debug from the Embedded Developer menu. This will invoke
the build process and take the Cloud IDE into debug mode.
The debug panel on the right side is used to control the debug process (step,
run, stop), add variables for inspection and breakpoints. Variables can be added
by typing their name in the textentry box above the watch variable listing and
pressing the Enter key. Variables can be remove by selecting the appropriate
item and pressing the Delete key. Breakpoints can be added/removed by clicking
on the desired line number in the editor.
FAQ
Q: I cannot flash/debug my program because the appropriate entries in the
Embedded Developer menu are disabled.
A: Check the Debug-Control Service indicator in the cloud IDE. If the
indicator is red, this means that the connection between the browser and the
software is not established. Check the selected location in the Target-Side
menu so that it’s set to the location your embedded board is connected, e.g., cloud-emb.technikum-wien.at.
Q: I have set breakpoints but they are ignored when debugging.
A: Check if the breakpoints exist and are enabled in the breakpoint tab of the debug panel. A breakpoint which is ticked is enabled whilst a breakpoint without a tick is disabled.
Q: When I switch to another project, my breakpoints and variables disappear.
A: This is because breakpoints and inspected variables are saved separately for each project.
